Call Index

This API Reference describes the elements and attributes for each call in the eBay Merchant Data API.

Note: SOAP is not a supported format for the information within Merchant Data files. The Merchant Data APIs in the following table can be used as the 'payload' information within Merchant Data files that are uploaded or downloaded. These are not calls that can be invoked on their own, like the Trading APIs in the 'Related Calls' table.

Additional resources are available for this eBay Web Service. Please see the eBay Developer Documentation Center.

See also the calls in the eBay Trading Web Services.

The following table lists calls from other eBay products that can be used in data files for use with Large Merchant Services. Just as with Merchant Data APIs, you must provide an XML declaration (e.g., <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>) and the call must be contained within a BulkDataExchangeRequests container (e.g., <BulkDataExchangeRequests>...</BulkDataExchangeRequests>).
